Early rising is helpful in more than one way....

Early rising is helpful in more than one way. First, it helps us to have good health. We all need fresh air. It makes our health better to take morning exercises. The air is never so fresh as early in the morning. Early rising helps us in our studies. In the morning we learn more quickly and find it easy to learn something by heart. Early rising makes people be able to plan the work for the day. We can’t work well without a good plan. Just as the plan for the year should be made in the spring, the plan for a day should be made in the morning. Early rising gives us enough time to get ready for our work, such as to wash our hands and eat our breakfast. So the popular saying says,“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.”

What is one thing that would help parents understand their kids better? More than 8,000 US kids answered this question in an online poll (投票) by KidsHealth.org.

Many US kids — two out of three — said they get along with their parents. But that doesn’t mean they never disagree. In fact, most kids reported arguing with their parents, at least sometimes. And two out of five kids said arguments sometimes even include shouting at each other.

“It’s certainly normal to disagree and argue,” says Darcy Lyness, an American expert. “But it’s also important to learn how to do so respectfully (尊重地). Be patient. Don’t use a raised, angry voice.”

And not surprisingly, three out of four kids said they had lied to their parents sometimes. Many said they lie so they would not get in trouble or disappoint their parents. According to Lyness, lying isn’t just wrong. It can actually have bad results. Telling the truth builds trust.

Telling the truth, says Lyness, shows maturity (成熟). But older kids actually lie more often than younger ones. Kids aged 12 to 14 not only said they lie more, but they also reported having less fun, feeling less close and not getting along as well with their parents.

According to Lyness, those feelings are common. As kids become more independent (独立), they have more areas of disagreement with their parents. But it doesn’t have to be that way. “Kids and parents get along differently at each stage of the journey,” she says. “As kids grow and change, it is important for everybody to change.”

1.In Lyness’s opinion, kids_______ their parents.

A. never agree with B. may argue with

C. must always agree with D. can shout at

2.Why do some kids lie to their parents?

A. They don’t trust their parents. B. They don’t want to get into trouble.

C. They don’t think lying is wrong. D. They are disappointed with their parents.

3.About _______ out of the 8,000 students in the poll said that they have lied to their parents.

A. 3,000 B. 4,500 C. 6,000 D. 7,500

4.According to Paragraph 5, older kids ________.

A. have more fun in life B. seldom lie to their parents

C. feel less close to their parents D. gets along better with their parents

5.The writer wrote this article to ____________ .

A. explain why kids tell lies

B. show how parents and kids get along

C. avoid troubles between parents and kids

D. help parents and kids understand each other better

One of the easiest and cheapest ways to help your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night, but more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health Organization, over half the people in the world may be sleep-deprived. The result of this is not just a lot of tired people; in the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 car accidents, and 1,500 deaths a year. Problems with sleep can also cause mental （心理的） problems, as well as medical problems such as high blood pressure and heart problems.

American culture values work and often doesn’t value sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are often called “lazy”. Many famous men say proudly, “I only have time to sleep four or five hours a night.” Students, especially college students, often sleep only a few hours a night. They often say, “I’m used to sleeping only a little.”

But according to experts, sleep is like money. If you sleep only five hours a day, you don’t “get used to it”, but instead, build up a “sleep deficit （亏损）”. “It’s like a credit card （a card used to buy things or services）,” says Dr. James Maas, “You are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back.” The more hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should sleep to “pay back” the hours on your “sleep credit card”. For example, if you sleep four hours on Monday and then sleep eight hours on Tuesday, on Wednesday you will still have a “sleep deficit” of four hours. This deficit can continue for months or even years. People with a “sleep deficit” are sleep-deprived. Driving and making decisions can be dangerous for these people.

Another research shows people should sleep nine or ten hours every night. More than half the people in the world may be running a “sleep deficit”. You didn’t do your homework last night? Maybe you can tell your teacher that you were working hard on your sleep deficit.

“Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the day. That’s a foolish idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more,” said Winston Churchill.

1.How many hours do we need to sleep every day if we want to keep healthy?

A. 7.　　 　　 B. 6.　 　　 C. 11. 　 D. 8.

2.What does the underlined word “sleep-deprived” mean?

3.From the passage we know sleep-deprived people ________.

A. are easily tired　　　

B. most likely cause traffic accidents

C. can have both mental and medical problems

D. have all the above problems

4.What Winston Churchill said means ________.

A. sleep more during the day, work more at night　　

B. sleep during the day influences your work

C. people who sleep during the day have no imagination

D. sleep during the day is helpful to your work

5.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?

A. Sleep and Health　　

B. The Less Sleep, the More Danger

It’s no secret that reading is helpful. But can it help kids lose weight In the first study to look at the influence of literature on overweight teenagers, researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital discovered that reading the right type of novel may make a difference.

The Duke researchers asked overweight girls aged 9 to 13 who were already in a weight loss program to read a novel called Lake Rescue. It was carefully created with the help of pediatric experts (儿科专家) to include specific healthy lifestyle and weight management guidance, as well as positive messages and strong role models.

Six months later, the Duke researchers found the 31 girls who read Lake Rescue experienced a significant decrease (fall) in their BMI scores (-.71%) when compared to a control group of 14 girls who hadn’t (+.05%), explained Alexandra C. Russell, a fourth-year medical student at Duke who led the study.

“As a pediatrician, I can’t count the number of times I tell parents to buy a book that might provide useful advice, yet I’ve never been able to point to research to back up my recommendations,” says Sarah Armstrong, director of Duke’s Healthy Lifestyles Program where the research took place. “This is the first probable interventional (介入的) study that found literature can have a positive influence on healthy lifestyle changes in young girls.”

Obesity(肥胖） is becoming more widespread in children, according to the CDC (Centres for Disease Control), which reports that 16 percent of children aged 6 to 19 are overweight or obese, a number that has increased since 1980. Researchers are looking at a lot of ways to help kids stay healthy, lose weight and be more active, but Armstrong says, “most don’t work very well. The weight loss choices that are effective typically involve taking powerful medications with side effects, or require long-lasting surgical procedures.”

While the BMI decrease because of the book is small, Armstrong says any decrease in BMI is encouraging because BMI typically increases in children as they grow and develop. That’s okay as long as it follows a normal, progressing curve(曲线）. In overweight kids, however, BMI usually increases more quickly. “If their BMI percentile (百分位) goes down, it means they are either losing weight or getting tall and not gaining weight. Both are seen as positive signs in kids who are trying to lose weight,” she explains.

1.What did researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital do?

A. They tried to find out the reasons why kids are overweight.

B. They focused on the research into girls’ healthy lifestyle.

C. They studied whether literature could help lose weight.

D. They helped the girls to choose right books to read.

2.The underlined phrase “back up my recommendations” probably means “_____”.

A. influence my research　　 B. change my opinion　　 C. respect my study　　 D. support my advice

3.Which of the following statements about the research is TRUE?

A. The researchers interviewed the girls and studied information.

B. Pediatric experts offered specific guidance to the research.

C. 16 percent of children aged from 9 to 13 were overweight.

D. The girls read a certain novel and gave their reports.

4.What’s the finding of the research?

A. That the girls all grew tall and lost weight after 6 months.

B. That the girls showed great interest in reading literature works.

C. That the girls who read Lake Rescue had a decrease in BMI.

D. That the girls needed to take powerful medications to lose weight.
